My Little Embryo is an embryo donation story. A beautiful poetic read for any time of day! Perfect for introducing your child to the fact that

they were made in a very special way, by donor embryo. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that the story is about the reader and their child. "Now you must know you were once my little embryo." Although your DNA is not the same, we still share something in common, even just one dot.

Written in a gentle manner to give parents plenty of room to add as much detail and facts as they wish. Take a more personalized approach when reading to your child, anywhere there is a capitalized "You" in the story, replace it with your child's name and the rhythmic flow will unfold in an even more brilliant way.

Days before Melody's daughter turned nine years old, she was looking in the mirror at her and said, "Mommy, we don't look alike at all." Melody's heart sunk. It was never a secret that her daughter was made in a very special way (embryo donation), but many years had passed since the topic came up. Melody looked back in the mirror at her daughter and pointed out all the similarities they did have, especially their freckles. Knowing Melody's response

was not going to be enough; she would have to revisit the story of her daughter's creation. Melody weaved a poetic story of how she struggled to have her daughter. That poem birthed this book. A story about one tough bird who wouldn't give up until she had a You and it did not matter how her baby looked.
